b. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the PLAN, in the event the Optionee’s engagement with the Company is terminated by the Company within one (1) year following a Change in Control for any reason other than Cause, then Vesting shall be determined pursuant to the Plan.

c. Any cessation of Services by the Optionee other than upon a Change of Control shall terminate the vesting schedule, and any options that have theretofore become vested shall be exercisable by the Optionee.

3. Exercise of Options. Other terms, times and conditions of exercise of the Options are as follows:

a. Prior to the Expiration Date, vested Options shall be fully exercisable in whole or in part for a number of shares up to the aggregate number of all vested Option Shares. The Options shall be exercised by completing the exercise form attached hereto as Exhibit A.

b. Upon the death or Disability of the Optionee, the Optionee or the personal representative of the Optionee, as applicable, may exercise the Options to the extent not previously exercised (and, in the case of death, to the extent the Options could have been exercised by the Optionee on the date of death) subject to the terms set forth in this Agreement, until their termination as provided by Section 2 hereof.

c. The Options shall be exercised by written notice directed to the Grantor. Such written notice shall be accompanied by full payment in cash for the number of Option Shares specified in such written notice or by such other method authorized by the Plan.

d. Subject to the terms of this Agreement or the Plan, vested Options may be exercised at any time and without regard to any other option to purchase stock of the Company held by the Optionee.

e. In the event the outstanding shares of Common Stock are increased or decreased or changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other securities of the Company or of any other corporation by reason of any merger, sale or stock, consolidation, liquidation, recapitalization, reclassification, stock split up, combination of shares, stock dividend, or transaction having similar effect, the total number of shares subject to this Option shall be proportionately and appropriately adjusted. Any fractional shares resulting from any of the foregoing adjustments under this section shall be disregarded and eliminated.
